PLEASE HELP STOP THEM FROM GETTING THE 60 VOTES FOR CLOTURE TODAY. STOPPING THIS IS CRITICAL IN STOPPING OBAMACARE! IT IS OUR BEST AND EASIEST HURDLE TO STOP THIS!!
The Senate is expected to vote at 8PM EST today, Saturday, on whether to take up the legislation Healthcare Legislation (vote for cloture). The majority leader, Harry Reid, Democrat of Nevada, refused to say whether he had the 60 votes needed to clear that procedural hurdle, but it is believed that he is within a couple of votes.

SAMPLE LETTER/FAX
Dear Senator ______________,
I urge you to vote “NO” to cloture today and stop this bill from proceeding! Junk this bill!!!
I am normally in favor of debate, but the American People all know what is going on these days on the Hill and that if this bill goes through with 60 votes Harry Reid and the other liberals in the Senate will pass this bill with the help of the White House using arm twisting, bribes and by the illegal method of reconciliation… needing only 51 votes to pass this type of bill . A bill that the American people don’t want.
“Please vote no” and encourage your fellow Senators like Ben Nelson, Mary Landrieu, Blanche Lincoln and other moderates who are being pressured to join you in doing the right thing!
We all know that 97% of the bills that pass the cloture vote phase are ultimately passed and signed into law. Nobody has the votes to make enough changes to make this bill palatable to the American People… or turn it into an actual healthcare reform bill, instead of a revenue generating power grab at the expense of the people you represent, so there is no reason for debate or further review. The more review the angrier Americans will become!
The American people will not stand for another John Kerry excuse like: “Well, I voted yes on the war, but then I voted no” This is an even more important vote than the war and we need you to vote “NO” today, to the right thing, or you will be unseated!
We also know that many Senators have been bought off… Mary Landrieu told the American people just yesterday on national TV that she was still reading the bill and was undecided… Now we all know she was bought off with a deal of $100 million dollars for her state, in exchange for her vote on this bill. In the real world that is called a bribe!
I am a member of several large and powerful national organizations and am also a blogger as well as part of a blogging circle. Looking at the official polls, polls within my sphere of influence and after talking to everyone I know, which is a group comprised of Democrats, Conservatives, Liberals, Republicans, Libertarians and some totally non-political people… the large overwhelming majority do not want this bill or any version of ObamaCare!!
The chant from all corners is: “KILL THIS BILL AND THEN START OVER WITH HONEST BIPARTISAN HEALTHCARE REFORM”
The percentage of people who support any of the bills that are floating around varies between 29 and 32% and are dropping daily. The percentage of people who disapprove of all the bills that are floating around varies between 51 and 54%, but in many areas the people against ObamaCare is 2 to 1, and disapproval is rising as well.
Most people favor incremental healthcare reform which includes:
Tort reform; Fraud reform; Portable health insurance; Deficit neutral solutions; Sensible cuts; Spending Accounts that allow roll-overs into 401 K’s for unspent amounts… and other sensible measures
They also want:
No tax increases to cover this so-called reform; No governmental funds for abortions; No coverage of Illegal aliens, only American citizens and legal residents; No over-seer that gets between patients and their doctors (i.e. death panels); No government-run public option, single payer or trigger of any kind… no matte what you call it; and no electronic healthcare records of any kind, let alone ones with access ability to people’s financial records or placed on micro-chips in our bodies or any of the other Big Brother items in all these bills or hidden in bills already passed!!!
I/we will make sure that Senators that vote yes today for cloture or help get this billed passed in any way will lose re-election or be impeached. We are angry and tired of being ignored!!!!!!!
(Your Name) An American Mom/An American Dad/A Patriot… or whatever you feel

74% of voters rate the quality of health care they now receive as good or excellent and they know their coverage will be worse and more expensive after ObamaCare passes and even worse when they reach old age under the new system. The also fear all the intrusive stipulations and measures added into the bills; many of which we haven’t even found or realized yet. And these voters realize that the increase in the deficit, increased taxes and reduction in freedoms certainly makes no sense in any time, but especially in today’s economic climate, and in the end there will still be millions uninsured! Rasmussen Poll….
Many of the people who favor government controlled (socialized) heathcare still won’t have coverage after we destroy the present system while upping our costs, taxes and debt… And many who support ObamaCare are not regular voters… For those of us who are, God forbid that this disastrous program passes… but let us make sure we do remember come election day, who supported this bill and who supported us!
Note there are provisions in the Constitution for the Federal Government to make anyone buy healthcare, just as there are no provisions the Constitution for the Federal Government to collect Federal Income Tax. Ding Ding Ding… There are provisions for impeachment, recalls, judicial reviews and for the courts to over turn unconstitutional laws… unless the court is packed with radicals, another Ding Ding Ding…
